Description Alexander Puchmayr 2026-01-03 10:33:03 UTC
SUMMARY
When kwallet's password dialog times out, service is not usable. No second chance until re-login.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Login to plasma. 
2. open a service needing the kwallet master password, e.g. the WIFI-password or kmail-password, or start kwalletmanager directly
3. Wait too long to enter the password (likely happens on older machines when lots of apps are popping up from session restore or the password-window is somewhere in the background)

OBSERVED RESULT
* A window from KDE Wallet Service pops up, wanting to create a new wallet named "Did not recieve a reply ...". I don't want to do this, so I cancel this.
* No WIFI, no mail-password. KDEWallet keeps closed 
* Trying to re-open kdewalletmanager via start-menu opens an empty, unresponsive window, waits for approx. 1 minute, then shows another almost empty window with content showing an error message (Did not receive a reply)

EXPECTED RESULT
KDEWallet asking for wallet password again, showing on-top of other windows

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: N/A
macOS: N/A
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.20.0
Qt Version: 6.9.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
* This only happens when the user fails to enter the kwallet-password on time. If its entered within the timout period, everything works fine.

Seems identical to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504678 
The fix should work since frameworks 6.15, but it is here again.
